The Only Problem
Just what is my problem you always had to know
I never knew I had one or that I’d let it show
You saw greener pastures with anyone but me
I couldn’t seem to measure up to others that you’d see
It took a while to realize
But finally I knew {Chorus
The only problem that I had
Was you
The Smith’s TV was bigger it’s picture twice our size
And Mrs. Brown’s new kitchen would win her a first prize
The Sawyer’s shiny Cadillac sure put our Ford to shame
Even all my overtime don’t keep us in the game
It took a while to realize
But finally I knew {Chorus
The only problem that I had {Instr.Brk
Was you
You found you a lawyer the owner of his firm
And I was just another bridge you couldn’t wait to burn
All my problems disappeared a month ago today
When you packed your possessions then turned and drove away
It took a while to realize
But finally I knew {Chorus
The only problem that I’d had
Was you
The only problem that I’d had
Was you
The only problem that I’d had
Was you
It took a while to realize
But finally I knew {Chorus
The only problem that I’d had
Was you
